European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced a 1 billion economic aid package for Lebanon in exchange for reduced migration to the EU due to an increase in Syrian refugees arriving in Cyprus.
Cyprus raised concerns over the influx of Syrian migrants and urged the EU to provide Lebanon with aid, similar to agreements with Turkey, Tunisia, and Egypt, as it suspended asylum application processing for Syrian nationals.
